Hello everyone

Hi, have been coming on the forum for a couple of months now but have finally got round to registering. I am fairly new to photography having bought a Canon 400D (the 5D is on my wish list!) about 6 months ago and have quickly got the bug (as well as a lower bank balance) and am keen to learn as much as possible. Have already invested in a couple of "good" canon lens - 17-85 IS and 70-200 F4 L Series, a manfrotto tripod/head and a Canon 430EX MKII Flash. Am keen to learn more about flash photography and have just this evening decided to take the plunge and ordered the Elemental G Series 2 Light kit, mainly based on posts I found on here discussing good budget studio lighting. Cannot wait to receive this and getting to play with them. Anyhow I won't wittle on any further, but just wanted to say hi and I look forward to joining in and hopefully learning lots along the way.
